Ivy Gamble has no magic, no interest in magic, and no envy for her estranged twin sister Tabitha, who has both power and a place teaching at The Osthorne Academy of Young Mages.
At least, that’s the story Ivy tells herself.
When a brutal murder rocks the academy, Ivy—now a private investigator—is called in to solve it. The job means stepping into a world she’s always kept at arm’s length, filled with untold power, dangerous secrets, and a sister she hasn’t spoken to in years.
As the investigation twists through lies, rivalries, and forbidden spells, Ivy must decide which is more dangerous: catching the killer or confronting the truth about herself.
Because at Osthorne, magic isn’t the only thing that can cut deep.
